Proud To Lead the Way
Christine prides herself on continually refining her leadership skills. “Effective leadership is the ability to make decisions and stand behind them. It is something that a person grows into with hard work, preparation, perseverance, and a commitment to take risks when necessary.”

Favorite NYIT Memory
“Producing my first student film, which was influenced by the Twilight Zone episode, ‘Number 12 Looks Just Like You.’”

Lights, Cameras … Not So Much Action?
Christine says one of the biggest misconceptions about working in TV is that people think she attends glitzy events and hangs out with celebrities. Not true, she says, but then quickly adds, “It only happens some of the time.”

Tune In Anytime
The future of TV, says Christine, will involve finding new ways to deliver content to viewers—whenever, wherever, and however they want it.
